KQED's Campaign for the Future

On March 1, 2004, KQED reached its $70 million goal for the Campaign for the Future. We thank all of our 11,000 Campaign donors for their generous contributions.

The Campaign launched in 1998, in response to the unfunded federal mandate to convert our television broadcast technology from analog to digital format. With a goal of $70 million, the Campaign for the Future supported three initiatives: Digital Conversion Fund, Program Venture Fund, and Infrastructure Fund.

The Digital Conversion Fund allowed KQED to replace all of our production and broadcast equipment for both the Radio and Television stations. This has allowed KQED to produce and edit content for both stations digitally.

The Campaign for the Future allowed KQED to firmly establish itself as a leader in public broadcasting. With effective and efficient all-digital production facilities now in place, KQED is well poised to continue to deliver innovative programs and services to the people of Northern California and beyond.
